The Dynamic Universe

The Dynamic Universe

The Dynamic Universe theory is a holistic description of the observable physical reality. Like the Copernican revolution, the DU creates a system perspective allowing straightforward mathematics and a conceivable cosmological picture of the universe — and gives precise predictions to observables without dark energy or other artificial parameters. It is a unifying theory converting spacetime in variable coordinates into dynamic space in absolute coordinates. The Dynamic Universe theory relies on an overall zero-energy balance in space and the conservation of the total energy in interactions in space. Instead of the relativity of an object to the observer, relativity in DU space means relativity of local to the whole — relativity appears a measure of the locally available share of the total energy in space.

The ultimate purpose of a scientific model is to make nature understandable. DU shows relativity in terms of local energy states saving time and distance as universal coordinate quantities essential for human comprehension. DU opens the essence of central physical quantities and produces precise cosmological predictions without adjustable parameters like the dark energy.

The Short History of Science

- or the long path to the union of metaphysics and empiricism

Tuomo Suntola, Physics Foundations Society

and The Finnish Society for Natural Philosophy
Third, complemented edition,

The book traces the development of the scientific picture of reality from antique to present day with special emphasis on the philosophical and theoretical choices made along the path. Also, the book studies the possibility of a re-evaluation the theoretical structures and the picture of reality with a closer connection between the philosophical and empirical aspects. Short biographies of more than one hundred key scientists are included as well as numerous references and links to primary documents.

Scientific models and a comprehensive picture of reality

The Finnish Society for Natural Philosophy, together with The Physics Foundations Society, arranged a two-day workshop on the theme Scientific models and a comprehensive picture of reality held on May 20-21, 2016 at the House of Science and Letters in Helsinki. The workshop brought together recognized philosophers, physicists and cosmologists to discuss the scientific models and the challenge of making nature understandable. The workshop called for novel aspects of unifying theories and discusses the postulates, testability and the philosophical criteria of the theories. Link to Workshop program and presentations.

The General Theory of Relativity 100 years

On November 10, 2015 The Finnish society for Natural Philosophy arranged a special event to celebrate the 100 years of the theory of general relativity. The program consisted of presentations on the status of astronomy at the time the theory was developed, the birth and the essence of the theory, and considerations of possible restructuring of the theory if today’s instruments, knowledge and observations had been available to Einstein.

Blackbody surface as antenna field. Antenna active area is related to the wavelength as Aλ=λ2/4π, with emission intensity to half-space as Iλ=1/Aλ =2π /λ2, which is exactly the Rayleigh-Jeans formula applying when all antennas are activated by the thermal energy, kT>hf. When only a part of antennas are activated as described by the Maxwell-Bolzmann distribution of the thermal energy, kT << hf, the emission intensity follows Wilhelm Wien’s radiation law. Max Planck’s radiation law combines the two and covers also the transition region where kT ≈ hf.

Planck equation is obtained from Maxwell's equations by solving the energy enitted into a cycle of radiation by a single transition of an elementarey charge. A point source is studied as one-wavelength antenna in the fourth dimension ( L = λ = cdt ).

FQXi Essay Contest in 2012, Full PDF Paper
How do we start composing a jigsaw puzzle? It is certainly helpful if we see the picture of the puzzle when fully composed. In the big puzzle of physics, we are about to fit the highly tuned parts together to see whether they match, and what the total picture looks like – have we created a monster or a beauty, or something in between?

Tuomo Suntola, The Dynamic Universe – from whole to local

Relativity in the DU is not relativity between an object and the observer, but relativity between local and the whole - it shows the energy available in a local state of motion and gravitation. Clocks in motion or close to a mass center loose time because they have bound part of their energy in motion and local gravitation.

Recent observations on the redshift and magnitude of distant supernovae have raised fundamental questions of the cosmological structure and the development of space. Interpretation of the observations with the standard cosmology model suggests accelerating expansion of space which requires an assumption of unknown dark energy working against gravitation at cosmological distances. This paper presents an analysis which shows that the observed magnitude redshift relationship is in an excellent agreement with the prediction derived by assuming a zero energy balance of motion and gravitation in an expanding 4-sphere. Such an approach can be regarded as Einstein-deSitter expansion in the fourth dimension, suggesting a decelerating expansion velocity until zero in infinity.
